Sunan an-Nasa'i 78

Translation

"Some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ were looking for (water for) Wudu'. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Do any of you have water?' He put his hand in the water and said: 'Perform Wudu' in the Name of Allah.' I saw the water coming out from between his fingers until they had all performed Wudu'." Thabit said: "I said to Anas: 'How many did you see?' He said: 'About seventy.'"

  يرويه سعيد بن أبي عروبة واختلف عنه فروي عن مكي بن إبراهيم عن سعيد عن قتادة عن الحسن عن أنس قاله أحمد بن الحباب الحميري عن مكي وليس بمحفوظ وخالفه يزيد بن زريع والبرساني وغندر رووه عن شعبة عن قتادة عن أنس ليس فيه الحسن وهو الصواب

  machine translationSaʿīd b. Abī ʿArūbah narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. It was narrated from Makkī b. Ibrāhīm, from Saʿīd, from Qatādah, from al-Ḥasan, from Anas; Aḥmad b. al-Ḥubāb al-Ḥimyarī said this from Makkī, and it is not preserved (maḥfūẓ). Yazīd b. Zurayʿ, al-Bursānī and Ghundar contradicted him: they narrated it from Shuʿbah, from Qatādah, from Anas, without al-Ḥasan in it, and this is the correct version. Report a problem
